Summary Introduction

To explain:

The reason for transplant rejection and determine the lymphocytes responsible for it.

Introduction:

Antibodies are the protein molecules produced by the body to retaliate the antigen. In immunization, the antigen (weakened) or antibodies are provided to boost the immunity. The passive immunization is the short term immunity provided by administering the antibodies. It is provided to an individual by giving the antibodies.

Innate lymphoid cells reside primarily in tissues such as the lungs, the lining of the gastrointestinal tract, and the skin, because these sites represent the major routes of entry of pathogens into the body. Several different subsets of innate lymphoid cells exist, and each is specialized to respond to a category of pathogen (e.g., viruses, extracellular bacteria, helminthic parasites, etc). a) True b) False
The transplantation of organs from one person to another was impossible until the discovery of immunosuppressive drugs. Now, with the use of drugs such as cyclosporine, organs can be transplanted without rejection. Transplant patients must take immunosuppressive drugs for the remainder of their lives. What are the potential risks associated with long-term use of immunosuppressive drugs?
The correct order of words to describe how innate immune response responds to a pathogen that has gotten by the physical and chemical barriers is: À) Skin, Saliva, Cytokines, Macrophage B)Macrophage, Cytokines, Neutrophil, Natural Killer Cell C) Neutrophil, Cytokines, Killer T Cell, Antibodies D) Antigen, Macrophage, B Cell, Killer T Cell
